front rotor removal

96 Nissan Sentra front rotors.

When I picked up the parts at O'ril I was told that I had to take off the cotter pin, wheel bearing etc...and needed a special tool.

Bought a Chilton and also looked on AutoZos site and it looks like the parts guy was looking at the wrong vehicle year. They both show that you can use two bolts to screw into two holes to get the rotor off. But No Bolt Holes in old or on the new rotors.

I gave a few whacks with a hand sledge and no luck. Ran out of time and had to quit. Will try whacking the other side tomorrow (today)...GF's daughter torched the rotor on the side I was working on.

I googled a few things, but not much luck. Wanted to make sure that I do not have to take wheel bearings etc off. That way I can whack it much harder.

Thanks tons
